The Tongtian Sect Leader was a little surprised to hear that. However, it made sense. He disdained to join hands with River Styx, and River Styx would not join hands with anyone either given his temperament and strength. So, why did River Styx come here? The Tongtian Sect Leader was curious, so he asked, "Daoist Friend River Styx, I'm very curious. What is the deal you're talking about?"
When the Tongtian Sect Leader asked this question, River Styx stopped smiling and said, "The Poor Way wants my Daoist Friend to … As a deal, I'll give my Daoist Friend three things in return. What do you think?" At this moment, River Styx had a serious expression on his face and did not seem to be joking at all. However, what he said was really too shocking.
Judging from the Tongtian Sect Leader's expression, this was probably the first time the Tongtian Sect Leader had lost his composure like this ever since he was born. What River Styx said really shocked him. Looking at the serious expression on River Styx's face, the Tongtian Sect Leader knew that River Styx was not joking. Obviously, River Styx was serious about this deal.
However, the implications were too great, so the Tongtian Sect Leader had to be cautious. After thinking for a long time, the Tongtian Sect Leader said, "The Daoist Friend's plan is really shocking, but the Poor Way is somewhat interested. I'd like to know what the three things that my Daoist Friend is talking about are. Can they be worth the things that my Daoist Friend is scheming?"
Everything in the world was for profit, and Saints were no exception. After hearing the Tongtian Sect Leader's words, River Styx knew that this deal was already halfway to success. As long as the price he offered could reach the Tongtian Sect Leader's expectations, this deal would be a success. As long as this deal could be reached, River Styx's plan would be more confident.
Now, it was time for him to offer a price. River Styx said, "Although my Daoist Friend's Fairy Slaying Sword Formation is unparalleled in power, it is unable to suppress fate and has a fatal flaw. In that case, the Poor Way's first reward is to help my Daoist Friend complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation. For the sake of my plan, and to show my sincerity, the Poor Way can now help my Daoist Friend complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation. What do you think?"
When the Tongtian Sect Leader heard River Styx's first reward, his expression immediately changed. The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was his most precious treasure, and also the most precious treasure of the Jie Sect. It was also the supreme formation that ruled over Tendo's killing. When a Saint set up the formation, it could not be broken unless four Saints joined forces. The sword formation was mysterious and unpredictable, filled with boundless killing intent, and extremely dangerous. However, as the saying goes, 'Heaven is jealous of heroes', this supreme treasure was also the same. Although the sword formation was unparalleled in power, it also had a fatal flaw.
Now that River Styx said that he could help him complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, the Tongtian Sect Leader was naturally shocked. However, when he thought of the fact that River Styx possessed a heaven-defying supreme treasure like the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, it was very possible for him to do so. Thinking of the perfect Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, the Tongtian Sect Leader could not help but be tempted. It was not impossible for River Styx to get rid of him. If River Styx could really complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, the Tongtian Sect Leader would not lose out.
Seeing that the Tongtian Sect Leader was tempted, River Styx continued to say, "The second reward is this." As he spoke, a ball of silver liquid appeared in River Styx's hand. This was the Origin of Chaos that River Styx had obtained from the Chaos. The ball of Origin of Chaos in his hand was formed by countless strands of Origin of Chaos, and was extremely precious.
The Tongtian Sect Leader's expression changed when he saw the Origin of Chaos in River Styx's hand. Although he did not know what it was, he could clearly sense the aura of Chaos from it. Moreover, the moment this ball of Origin appeared, the Tongtian Sect Leader had an instinctive reaction of wanting to absorb it. For a Saint like him to have such a reaction, it was obvious that this ball of Origin of Chaos was definitely extraordinary.
River Styx looked at the greatly tempted Tongtian Sect Leader and said, "This is called the Origin of Chaos. After the Poor Way transformed into the Chaos Demon God, his Origin of Chaos transformed into this Origin of Chaos. Although I don't have much of this ball of Origin of Chaos in my hand, it is still a rare item. If we can reach an agreement, this will be the second reward that the Poor Way will give to his Daoist Friend."
The Tongtian Sect Leader was shocked when he heard this. The Origin of Chaos? He did not expect the Chaos Demon God to be so mysterious. However, he could clearly sense that the aura of the Origin of Chaos in River Styx's hand was different from that of River Styx's body. It was obvious that this ball of Origin of Chaos was not the Origin of River Styx. Thinking about it, River Styx would not do something that would harm his own foundation. Then, where did this ball of Origin of Chaos come from?
The Tongtian Sect Leader deduced various possibilities in his mind. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to him. He remembered that it was the puppet that River Styx had used to resist Zhunti. This puppet was refined from a strange beast with a body of the Origin of Chaos. However, that strange beast did not seem to be a creature of the Great Desolation. Could it be related to the origin of this Origin of Chaos? Could it be that they both originated from the Chaos?
River Styx did not care about the Tongtian Sect Leader's guesses. He continued with his third reward, "Daoist Friend, I'm afraid you're guessing the origin of this Origin of Chaos right now, right? Daoist Friend, you don't have to worry about it. The origin of this Origin of Chaos is the Poor Way's third reward. The Poor Way's reward has been stated clearly. Daoist Friend, you can consider it carefully. The Poor Way will wait for your reply. "
After the Tongtian Sect Leader heard this, he immediately fell into deep thought. River Styx's scheme was too shocking, but similarly, his reward was equally shocking. No matter how good the Tongtian Sect Leader's temperament was, he was still rather tempted. However, this matter was too important, and he indeed needed to consider it carefully. The Tongtian Sect Leader was not the kind of person who would be easily blinded by profit.
The Tongtian Sect Leader fell into deep thought, while River Styx waited for his reply. The Aquamarine Palace fell into a deathly silence. It was so quiet that it was somewhat frightening. In the silence, River Styx was not anxious at all. The Tongtian Sect Leader was a smart person. At the same time, he was also someone who had the ambition to pursue the Great Dao. Just like River Styx, River Styx believed that he would make the right choice.
After a long time, the Tongtian Sect Leader, who had been in deep thought with his eyes closed, opened his eyes. His expression became calm, and he no longer looked tempted. He said calmly, "Daoist Friend River Styx, I can agree to your deal. However, the prerequisite is that you can complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation." River Styx's deal was a win-win for both of them. What River Styx was scheming for was of no use to the Tongtian Sect Leader. There was no conflict between the two of them.
When River Styx heard this, he laughed heartily, "Good, good, good. Since that's the case, Daoist Friend, please take out the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation and let the Poor Way study it." When the Tongtian Sect Leader heard this, he stretched out his hand, and the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation appeared in his hand. He then handed it over to River Styx. The Tongtian Sect Leader was not afraid that River Styx would plot against his treasure. Although the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was tempting, River Styx probably would not stoop so low as to do so.
After receiving the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation from the Tongtian Sect Leader, River Styx secretly mobilized the power of the Daoist Mirror and began to deduce the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation with all his might. In order to speed up the process, River Styx directly sacrificed the power of merit to the Daoist Mirror. Now that the Battle of Gods had begun, River Styx did not have much time to spend on completing the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation. He had to end the battle quickly.
The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was indeed one of the Four Great Formations of the Great Desolation (the Twelve Divine Fiends Formation, the Cosmic Stars Formation, the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, and the True Martial Origin Formation). It was also a Supreme Grade Innate Cardinal Treasure. The restrictive spells within it were unimaginably complex, far more complex than the Middle Grade Innate Cardinal Treasure that River Styx had refined in the Treasure Realm. Fortunately, it was still within River Styx's tolerance. Otherwise, it would be a slap to his own face if he could not fulfill his promise.
After completing the deduction, River Styx finally began to act. With a wave of his hand, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth appeared in the main hall. He reached out and placed the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation into the cauldron. Along with the sword formation, he also placed a small piece of Primal Chaos Origin Stone that River Styx had left. In order to complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, the materials used naturally could not be lacking.
The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was composed of the Fairy Slaying Sword, the Fairy Slaughtering Sword, the Fairy Trapping Sword, the Fairy Eliminating Sword, and the formation diagram. Once it was deployed, it would emit a boundless killing intent. At the same time, this formation would also gather the killing intent between heaven and earth to strengthen the power of the sword formation. However, the success and failure of the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was also due to this. As the saying goes, when things reach an extreme, they will move in the opposite direction. The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, which had reached the pinnacle of killing, naturally left a trace of flaw in this Cardinal Treasure.
As long as it was a perfect Cardinal Treasure, its power would inevitably be restrained. For example, the Taiji diagram, Pangu's Banner, the Bell of Chaos, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth, as well as the original body of River Styx's Evil Corpse, the Twenty-fourth Grade Red Lotus of Hellfire. All of them were simple and unadorned. Without being activated, how could they display their power? However, the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was different.
This was the problem that River Styx had to solve. However, in order to save time, a figure flashed out from River Styx's body. It was River Styx's Evil Corpse, the Red Lotus Taoist. If the two of them worked together to complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation, they would certainly achieve twice the result with half the effort. The Fairy Slaying Sword Formation was a killing formation. It was just right to use the Law of Slaughter to complete it. However, in addition to the small piece of Primal Chaos Origin Stone, it would not be too difficult to complete the Fairy Slaying Sword Formation.
